Chick-fil-A Will Open In Mayfield Heights On Jan. 10

MAYFIELD HEIGHTS, OH — Chick-fil-A's first Mayfield Heights location will open to the public on Jan. 10. To celebrate its ribbon cutting, nearly 100 people will be given the chance to win free food from the restaurant for a year.

“I am excited to bring Chick-fil-A to Mayfield Heights and have an opportunity to serve the community outside my restaurant,” said local owner Billie Federer. “I’m looking forward to creating more career opportunities for my team and being a positive influence to my community through random acts of kindness.”

Those random acts of kindness will start before Federer's restaurant even officially opens.

On Jan. 9, one day before the official grand opening, Federer and Chick-fil-A will host a First 100 Road Trip. During the event, 100 adults will be taken on a daylong interactive service trip via chartered buses. Registration for the event will be held between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m. on Jan. 9, or until 100 people sign-up.

During the trip, guests will visit different areas in the Mayfield Heights community, and will spend approximately seven hours working with local service groups. Those 100 participants will then be entered into a raffle to win a year of free Chick-fil-A meals (52 meals with each consisting of a Chick-fil-A Chicken Sandwich, medium Waffle Potato Fries and a medium beverage).

The service trip and raffle is open to people in Mayfield Heights and surrounding communities. To see if you're eligible, visit the Chick-fil-A website.

There will also be a children's book drive that will benefit HIllcrest Hospital's Infants & Children's Services.
